Atom Feeds the same as RSS

Looks like Microsoft will be considering Atom an “RSS format†in Windows Vista.
From the Windows Vista Developer Center RSS homepage:
Windows Vista will support all common RSS formats, including: RSS 1.0, 2.0 and Atom 0.3. We will support Atom 1.0 when it’s released.
And from the RSS Support in Longhorn article:
RSS, as we use it in this document, refers not to a single format (such as RSS 2.0), but to the general concept of feeds of syndicated content. It should be considered to cover all feed formats that meet the basic criteria of updateable [sic] collections of items.
